It is almost involuntary,” he said.

Another episode narrated by Evaristo occurred in a restaurant. “The security guard came later and said I couldn’t use the bathroom, only if I consumed. I asked:” Can I first use the bathroom and then consume? “He said in this way,” no, first you have to consume, “he said.

“Nobody needs to use this cable to guarantee your rights, it is optional use. But it helps to communicate quickly. […] When you see someone with this cord, now you know what it means “he concluded.
